GetSafe Packaging

GetSafe DIY Home Security is a start-up security company that needed to redesign their generic and disorganized box into a simple, modern and intuitively designed package to house their "Starter Kit". This design not only securely holds all the products in place, it walks you through the easy set up process. After launching the GetSafe brand and product line, GetSafe has received many positive reviews about the packaging design.

"As soon as I received the GetSafe kit in the mail, I was impressed with the super cool and thoughtful packaging. It's designed like a mini briefcase and immediately orients you about the kit as you open it. "
